Understanding digital electronics

Don't be left behind by modern developments in digital electronics! They present a fascinating new world of achievement which can be easy to understand, if you start at the beginning. Everyone is familiar with digital displays on watches and clocks and calculators, for example. Each number is formed from seven rectangular 'light bulbs', with the correct number of bulbs switched on by a digital circuit to light up the number required.  Digital electronics, in fact, is based on devices which work on an on/off basis, or 'count' in steps of 1 (i.e., in 'digits'). The basic devices are quite simple, but when interconnected with tens, hundreds or even thousands of similar devices can perform a fantastic range of calculations, store and give out information, solve problems etc., all at fantastic speed. It is the number and complexity of interconnections of such devices that can be bewildering - not how the actual devices work.  Their working can be studied in three different ways. Mechanical equivalents in terms of switches and symbols (called block logic), which anyone can understand because you can 'see' how it works. Truth tables which display all possible conditions of a digital device, from which you choose the one you want, e.g., the ten possible states of a digital number display. Binary arithmetic for working out solutions mathematically. Plus, of course, the basic digital circuits involved which provide all the functions required.  How digital electronics works, with clear line drawings to illustrate circuits and their applications, is what this book is all about. It starts from first principles and works right through to 'talking' to computers. The author has considerable experience in the field of practical electronics and is noted for his ability to explain technicalities in language that is easy to understand.

A beginner's guide to designing & building transistor radios: How to design and build your own radios from scratch

Now you can design and build your own radios... from simple one-transistor types to sophisticated hi-fi FM receivers! This book shows how to do it in easy steps - without complex math. You learn how by getting acquainted with the "building block" circuit stages that are used in radios. Then you learn how each component affects the performance of that "block" or circuit. In no time at all, you'll be designing your own circuits and putting them together to make a radio that will do what you want it to do! The author is one of the most prolific writers on practical radio and electronics for hobbyists.

This is a basic book for anyone who wants or needs practical understanding of the components and circuitry which combine to make up the modern field of electronics. It is of particular value to anyone embarking on electronics for the first-time at hobby level, or for the would-be practitioner who is still in need of some grounding in the basics. Each chapter is written in a clear and easy-to-understand manner, and deals with a particular aspect of electronics. The accompanying definitions, simple mathematical equations, and the explicit line drawings make each stage fully intelligible to the beginner. In addition, Warring provides step-by-step instructions that let you build up and experiment with transistorized circuitry in 'breadboard' or printed-circuit form; in all, 32 suggested working circuits are included. The biggest problem that faces most beginners is interpreting circuit diagrams in order to make an accurate working circuit. Warring fully describes and illustrates the meaning of symbols, layouts and various methods of construction, including tagboard assembly, breadboards and printed circuits. There are also helpful practical tips on circuit assembly. Careful study of this book will ensure a comprehensive understanding of how modern electronic components operate, and also the working of radio, television, etc., and the function of electronic components such as transformers and batteries.
